Point One Finger, Get Three Pointing Back

Wake up.
Wake up in my bed.
Look down and see not what you know.
But what you’ll see is me.

Get up.
Get up out of bed.
Look around and see my room.
What has happened to you?

Walk out.
Walk out and live.
Live my life and see what I have to do.
See what it’s truly like from inside.

Open up.
Open up your eyes.
Find that not everything is what it seems.
That my challenges are true.

Come back.
Come back to yourself.
What have you learned from being me?
Has your perspective changed?

It will.
It will change us all.
Just understand what daily pain I endure.
Stop pointing fingers.

Especially when the person you’re pointing at,
Could be the person you needed all along.
